Chapter 124 Conflict Between Two Sects

"Father……"

Luo Le'er wanted to persuade him again, but Luo Zhantian waved his hand.

"Alright, Le'er, I know you want to share the burden for the sect, but this is inappropriate. Let's not bring it up again."

Seeing this, Luo Le'er felt somewhat helpless.

"Go back. Qingyang Sect will be fine with me here. Although the Overlord Body Sect is coming with great force, it is not that scary."

Luo Zhantian said with a smile.

Luo Le'er sighed and had no choice but to give up.

...

Tianwu City Black Market.

This place is located on the very edge of Tianwu City. It is called the Black Market because it is a place where all sorts of people mingle and all kinds of villains run rampant.

But it is also the largest trading place in Tianwu City.

There's no treasure you can't imagine that they can't provide here.

Yingxi didn't sleep; instead, she came here under the cover of night.

If the plot were to proceed normally, Yingxi wouldn't have any feelings for Zhou Xianzong at this point.

Her only thought was to cultivate her skills quickly and strive to surpass Zhou Xianzong one day.

That's why she spends most of her time outside seeking personal gain.

But ever since she read the diary, her mindset has changed, and she hasn't gone out to look for resources for a long time.

As a result, her cultivation speed has slowed down considerably recently. If she had to describe it in one sentence, it would be that the man affected her sword-wielding speed.

In addition, she didn't want to rely on Zhou Xianzong for everything.

I had no choice but to come here today, intending to use the Grade 7 Spirit Gathering Pill that Zhou Xianzong gave me to exchange for some pills that I could use.

"Old Ghost, how much do you think this thing is worth?"

Yingxi found a disheveled old man in the crowd with a goatee and a large black mole on his face.

She had collaborated with Lao Gui quite a few times before, but their relationship was nothing more than that.

"Pills?"

Old Ghost took the jade bottle from Yingxi's hand and poured it out.

It was a pill the size of a thumb, of excellent quality, the very Spirit Gathering Pill refined by Zhou Xianzong.

"This is... a Grade Seven Spirit Gathering Pill!"

Upon seeing this, the old ghost couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

He naturally understood the value of the seventh-grade Spirit Gathering Pill.

But then he suddenly remembered that this was the black market, and even though he managed to keep quiet, it still attracted the attention of many people around him.

In an instant, countless gazes swept over.

Old Gui was covered in cold sweat.

Yingxi's heart skipped a beat, and she glared at the old ghost.

"Run!"

Therefore, I wasn't too panicked.

"What were you holding in your hand just now? Show them to me."

The young man's voice became much colder, carrying a hint of command.

He walked over, and behind him were seven or eight other people.

"Hehe, what else could an old man like me have? All I could ask for were two steamed buns."

The smile on Lao Gui's face also disappeared.

"Hmph, I see you won't shed a tear until you see the coffin, is that it?"

The young man waved his hand.

Immediately, the seven or eight people stepped forward and surrounded Yingxi and Lao Gui.

"What do you want? Are you trying to rob us?"

Yingxi snorted coldly.

"Young lady, this is the black market. Even if I rob you, no one will stand up for you."

The young man laughed loudly, as if he had already won the battle.

"Move them, take them down."

"yes."

As soon as he finished speaking, seven or eight people made their move.

These people are quite skilled; even the weakest among them is at the fifth level of the Qi Opening Realm.

Even though Yingxi is very strong and started out as an assassin.

However, even two fists can't fight four hands, and for a time they were at a disadvantage.

As for Lao Gui, needless to say, his strength is even inferior to Ying Xi's.

Within moments, the two were severely injured and collapsed in pools of blood.

Seeing this, the others in the black market dared not say anything.

This kind of double-crossing is all too common; without some serious skills, who would dare to do it?

The young man walked over himself and took the Spirit Gathering Pill from the old ghost's arms.

"Hey, it really is a Grade 7 Spirit Gathering Pill. I didn't realize you guys had so many. Tell me, do you have any other treasures?"

No, that's all.

The old ghost lay on the ground, coughing up blood continuously.

“Take them back and interrogate them properly. They’re being stubborn and won’t tell the truth right now.”

The young man didn't bother with any more words. After accepting the Spirit Gathering Pill, he didn't look at the old ghost again.

Instead, they went to another place to trade.

...

"ah……"

Early in the morning, Zhou Xianzong stretched and got out of bed.

I glanced at the sun outside; it was almost noon.

"Bring some water over."

Zhou Xianzong called out to the door.

The maid who came to clean the courtyard responded.

Soon, maids were assigned to serve Zhou Xianzong, helping him dress and wash up, and even preparing breakfast for him.

Just as Zhou Xianzong was enjoying the full range of services, a maid came over and said softly.

"Young master, there is a woman outside who calls herself Mo Wu and says she wants to see you."

"Why is Sister Mo here?"

Zhou Xianzong was a little surprised. He put down the porridge in his hand and said.

"Bring her to see me."

Not long after, the sound of crisp footsteps could be heard.

"Oh, you're eating now."

"Hehe, I'll just have something light to eat."

Zhou Xianzong smiled.

"Then I'll take you to eat meat."

Mo Wu plopped down next to him.

Zhou Xianzong immediately winked at her and said in a slightly ambiguous tone.

"Eat meat? Human flesh or animal flesh?"

"What are you thinking about all day, you little rascal? It's been a while since I've seen you, so I came here especially to invite you to dinner."

Mo Wu rolled her eyes at him, exuding charm.

This woman truly deserves to be called the most charming and alluring person in Tianwu City.

Every glance and smile is perfectly natural and captivating.

Oh shit.

You're not going to have dinner with Xiao Potian.

Why did you come to see me?

Didn't you help Xiao Potian kill Ma Tu not long ago?

You remembered me today.

Do you mean you want to develop two lines simultaneously?

Zhou Xianzong was the kind of person who would accept anything, and immediately agreed.

"Okay, then wait for me a moment."

With that, he got up and went to find Yingxi.

That's when they realized Yingxi wasn't home.

I really don't know where that girl went. Surely she didn't become an assassin.

Left with no other choice, he had to leave with Mo Wu.

The two arrived at a luxurious restaurant in the city.

From here, you can enjoy a view of a quarter of Tianwu City.

As various delicious dishes were served, Mo Wu casually asked a question.

"Your Highness, the two factions have recently become enemies. What is your opinion?"

"What else can I watch it? I'll just lie down and watch it."

Zhou Xianzong said something casually.

Upon hearing this, Mo Wu was momentarily stunned.

"Are you really not going to care? Luo Le'er is in the Qingyang Sect."

Zhou Xianzong pursed his lips, looking as if he harbored deep hatred.

"Sister Mo, don't even mention it. Luo Le'er actually rejected my kindness for Xiao Potian. Since she wants to go to the Yellow Springs with Xiao Potian, then I will grant her wish. When the Qingyang Sect is defeated, she will naturally remember my kindness."

"Hehe, is that so? In that case, Your Highness, why don't you come to my Treasure Pavilion? Whatever Your Highness desires, I can give you."

Mo Wu joked.

"Yeah."

As Zhou Xianzong spoke, his eyes darted around, scanning Mo Wu.

"You little rascal, where are you looking?"

Mo Wu glared at him.

"hey-hey."

Zhou Xianzong smiled.
